Mbaye Niang future unclear after arrival of new coach

AC Milan striker and Frenchman Mbaye Niang’s future is up in the air again, after his agent Stephane Courbis admitted he did not know where the club’s new manager stood in terms of the player’s position at the club.

He had the following to say:

” At the moment, we don’t know yet if Niang will remain at AC Milan. We met with the club about a month ago and now we’ll have to talk to the new coach (Filippo Inzaghi). I can confirm that West Ham like him.”

The player had been in London recently to try to complete a loan deal to West Ham United, but the Hammers’ manager pulled out at the last minute.
